and when the void was given the old office lines were broken off and the gap closed at the new office The whole allalr was ingeniously arranged so as to be handled by the nulling of a few strings and

desk The lines first enter the exchange in these rooms terminating on what Is called a main distributing frame1' The lines terminate on one side of the frame while i the switchboard terminals are connected to the other side of the frame and the frame itself affords run ways for remova ble wires which may be so strung in the frame as to connect any switchboard terminal with any line One side of this frame is conioletelv covered with small lightning protectors which serve to discharge the lines of nnv dan gerous currents which might come upon them through accidental contact with mei wires or
